will. 1t is believed that the government wishes
to encourage violent expressions of opinion,
such as those recently indulged in by Mr. Davitt
at Bodyke, and the Nationalist leaders seem in
danger of falling into the trap thus laid for
them. Mr.. Davitt has on several occasions
peated his advice to the people to use force in
resisting uniustifable evictions and he will cer-
tanly be arrested as the government

the crimes bill. Some of the other Parnellite
leaders have also INDUCED in a dangerous lati-

will Eot be pardoned. and on the pretext of some
seditious utterances in United ireland he will be
arrested at the first plausible opportunity. His
Canadian speeches cannot be used directly
against him, but they will be brought in as col

himself. 1t has been said publicly within the
last three days that Sexton could cause a
revolution of the Irish people by a
word if he chose to order one. He

whom this is true. His conservatism, instead of
lessening his influence, adds to and makes it in

Blinded by their animosity to the Irish national
movement, Lord Salisbury's Ministry about
to make the fatal mistake of arousing the people
to fierce anger by imprisoning their guides and
counselors who have already done much for
the cause, and who are looked to for complete
deliverance. The outlook is serious.
O'Brien Given an Ovation in Dublin
DUBLIN. June 19.--All Dublin was agog with
enthusiasm to night, and the greatest amount nt
rejoicing was displayed over the return of Will
lam OBrien from his American crusade. The
ovation given him was the greatest witnessed

The Mayor requested that cheers be given for
OBrien, Davitt, Mr.. Gladstone. and finally for the
evicted tenants at Bodyke. Cheer after cheer
was given with will, until the people had made
themselves hoarse. Groans given with
equal fervor for Lord Lansdowne. for all rack
renting landlords. and for Lord Salisbury. The
crowd cried for O'Brien to speak. and in answer
to repeated calls, the Irish editor made brief
address. He did not speak long, because his
voice was unable to reach hundredth part of
the mass. The throng before the hotel was
enormous, and WAS densely packed that many
